Did they ask if you had any allergies for that last box? Imagine if you had a milk and/or a nut allergy.

[@Shiyuukii]

the second advent calendar seems to be stationary for journaling, it's like a DIY thing where stick a bunch of things on a page to create an aesthetically pleasing form of art, i'd say.

[@sazzydaffy33]

So, as an Etsy seller, I've got to explain what you need to consider here. If it cost you £80, the seller will be paying close to £10 for all of the Etsy fees, then say £36 for the items at £1.50 each on average, plus say £6 for the wrapping, so that is only leaving the seller £28 profit. Assuming it has taken them 3 hours to buy all the bits, wrap them individually, go to the post office etc, that's only leaving £9 an hour profit. Not forgetting they will also be paying tax and insurance and declaring it as self employed income, so you're left with about £7 an hour profit...less than minimum wage. So while £80 may seem a lot to the buyer, this is literally the minimum the seller can charge to make a bit of a profit on doing it all. You're paying for the convenience of having someone make you an advent calendar, and the surprise and novelty of opening 24 gifts you didn't know about. Hope that makes sense and is helpful!

[@ericadrake387]

I see what you’re saying for the time, packaging costs, Etsy Fees etc but as for the item cost, time spent & postage: if the seller is selling a few of these, they won’t be going to the shop for each individual box they make up. They will be going to the shop once and buying for multiple boxes or they will be ordering online in bulk, which also sometimes reduce the price per item for the seller. Plus, they will also be sending out multiple boxes at the same time so they will be making slightly more per hour than you state. If they are not buying in bulk at a reduced cost & are having to make multiple trips to the shops and/or Post Office, then maybe the seller needs to look at whether they should tailor the way they operate to maximise their profit or stop offering a service that takes so much time & effort for so little in return.

[@sazzydaffy33]

@@ericadrake387 Oh yes, I agree that they might save time by bulk posting etc. but they are still individual wrapping 24 presents, which I know would take me flipping ages. And there are also costs in time that I didn’t mention, such as time taken to work on SEO tags for the listing, photographing the products in a light box to get your listing to the top of the search term, all things that take time in learning and executing. My point is that when a buyer sees the £80 price tag and deems it expensive, they aren’t considering all of these factors that come in to reduce the profit margins and ultimately the hourly wage the seller is going to receive. I also don’t think anyone can throw the word ‘scam’ around with this either, as long as what was received is what was listed in the description, and the seller wasn’t promising you would receive £80 worth of products for your money.

[@ericadrake387]

@@sazzydaffy33 I agree with all you are saying on the hidden costs. But ultimately the customer doesn’t care about that, they care about value for money. For example, I know that a baker can make a better cake than I can at home, a hairdresser can cut my hair better etc. I know I am paying extra for their expertise, time & costs etc. I am happy to pay, because they can do it better than I can. But going to the shops, wrapping some cheap presents & then charging me top dollar when I could do exactly the same myself for less? Of course the customer is going to be annoyed & feel ripped off. The fact is, the customer doesn’t care about the seller’s overheads, they just want value for money. Just look at the comments, the vast majority say it’s overpriced for what it is, there is no skill in it to justify paying extra for. So if a seller, is only going to deliver a product that’s going to leave the customer disappointed & feeling ripped off, then why bother in the first place. Would it not be better to focus all the time, effort & costs associated with it into a better quality & better value products, ensuring happy customers and, even more importantly, repeat business? Otherwise it’s a big waste of both the seller’s & the customer’s time & money.

Love the stationery one! I definitely recognised a lot of the characters too, Molang (the bunny), the Sumikko Gurashi guys, Rilakkuma etc. It would be really good for people that do journalling/planner deco. It seemed a bit overpriced maybe, but those types of stationery are usually imported and a bit more expensive. I definitely don't think the beauty one was anywhere near as good value, even though it looked like you got bigger sized items, a lot of them were off-brands and a bit cheap looking. The food/random one was wayyyyyyy overpriced, it looked very much like 24 items from Poundland, although it was nicely wrapped, it was worth about £40 max to include wrapping and to make a bit of profit - I would say yes, £80 for that is totally a scam!

I have a few of those, not the cat one but same concept, and I like to read several books at once, so I use them as bookmarks. They're AMAZING, I put them on the page before the one I'm actually reading so that I can just use the character to open the book itself and flip it right open to the exact page I need and I'll even put it along the side to mark where I should continue my reading. Love those things.

With box 1 the body yogurt the oils might have separated some which is normal and just needs to be mixed before using. Epsom salt is a natural exfoliant and anti-inflammatory remedy that can be used to treat muscle aches, dry skin and even fight various internal health issues, it's really good actually if you can use it in a bath but you can use it in a foot bath as well and it's really nice too. Box 2 I agree was alright. With stationary people that I watch I've noticed they use a lot of stickers to decorate their pages with and it's not bad if you're really into that kind of things but to get that many stickers in a box is a lot and kinda disappointing with how much you paid for it. I think last year's jewelry one from Esty was still the best LOL P.s. As a creator myself a little tip...If you put the timestamps in the description, it will add areas on the timeline that you can see as a watcher where each box is when hovering over it. Its pretty cool and kinda a new thing they added.

I looked for months for great advent calendars this year and I was very disappointed with almost all of the beauty companies advent calendars! Either 98% skincare and/or tiny little samples for very high prices! So, then I took to Etsy and Poshmark but again not great choices for what I was looking for in an advent calendar, enough to spend my hard earned money on this year. I do think the UK has FAR BETTER choices of advent calendars than the US does and sense I live in the states, there were many I just couldn't get my hands on unfortunately! However, I am a seller on Poshmark and also buy a lot of things on there as well and I was able to buy a custom makeup advent calendar on Poshmark from a seller that does mystery makeup boxes that I've ordered 2 in the past. So far, it's been absolutely INCREDIBLE!!!! I paid $90 plus tax and shipping so it was about $103 total but I've gotten all amazing products so far! A great mix of different brands, items, price points and a mix of high end and more affordable items as well! I am definitely going to be doing a review of it after the Christmas season as well!

I understand that many people will think that the last one was a scam, but even if the price of one day averages at £2,50 the price for the items is £60 and I wouldn't consider £20 for wrapping, buying and shipping a scam :)

I think the kawaii one is the fairest in price. Because i know that kawaii stuff can get pretty expensive. Even some stickers can be 8-10 euro's alone.

Box no 3 definitely had the best presentation. But wow that was some random items 😂
